IT management solutions developer CA Technologies has announced the third major release of its MSP licensing program for the backup solution CA ARCserve.
In a press release submitted to ChannelPro-SMB, CA Technologies says the latest iteration of its backup solution offers a “further simplified licensing structure” as well as new partner enablement resources and an expanded technology portfolio.
“The CA ARCserve MSP program empowers partners to quickly and cost-efficiently deliver effective, profitable data protection services,” the company’s press release states.
The enhanced program includes options for MSPs to license CA Technologies data protection technology on their choice of per-server, per-workstation, per-socket, per-virtual machine, or per-terabyte models.
The CA ARCserve MSP Program has also been enhanced with a simplified set of product SKUs designed to make it easier for MSPs to put together their market offerings.
MSP Zone Streamlines Enrollment
In addition the updated ARCserve offering, CA Technologies is also touting its new “MSP Zone” on CA’s ARCserve.com. New resources include service use-case playbooks that provide high-level descriptions of services, licensing options, and sample service level agreements.
A new “solution chooser” enables MSPs to identify the best managed service and technology to offer customers. The online tool provides a simple decision tree that helps MSPs tailor their managed service offerings to meet customers’ recovery point objectives and recovery time objectives.
The MSP Zone also includes an invitation-only area that showcases select MSP profiles and links to their respective sites to give them greater market visibility.
